Our location

LC is located in the foothills of the spectacular Blue Ridge Mountains in central Virginia. There’s no shortage of hikes, climbs, rivers, and streams. If you’re more the city type, head to Washington, D.C. (180 miles) or Richmond, Va. (120 miles).

The LC spirit

And then there’s the LC spirit. New students quickly learn that being friendly and helpful is an LC tradition. We are a truly caring community; you’ll hear it called “family” again and again.

Vision 2020: Strategic Plan

Through our comprehensive strategic plan, we clearly state our intention to enhance the signature Lynchburg experience that generations of students and alumni hold dear.

Claytor Nature Study Center

Our commitment to a sustainable lifestyle is supported by the Claytor Nature Study Center. This 470-acre outdoor classroom provides learning opportunities for the LC and local communities.
